    Amiodarone can cause hyperthyroidism, a condition where the thyroid gland is overactive. This study details 22 new cases, discusses diagnostic challenges, and outlines management strategies for this amiodarone-induced thyroid dysfunction.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiology
    • Endocrinology
    • Pharmacology

    Context:

    • Amiodarone is an antiarrhythmic drug with a high iodine content.
    • Thyroid dysfunction, particularly hyperthyroidism, is a known complication of amiodarone therapy.
    • Understanding this adverse effect is crucial for patient management.

    Purpose:

    • To report and analyze 22 new cases of amiodarone-induced hyperthyroidism.
    • To compare these cases with existing literature.
    • To discuss clinical features, diagnostic challenges, prognostic factors, and management strategies.

    Summary:

    • Presents 22 cases of hyperthyroidism linked to amiodarone treatment.
    • Highlights difficulties in interpreting thyroid function tests in these patients.
